WITH WHICH " THE TRUE SUN" IS NOW INCORPORATED. LONDON : SATURDAY EVENING, JUNE 9, IS3B. We are glad to see that the events at Canterbury are `liscussed throughout the country in relation to the instruc tiem which is dispensed by the Clergy. The Tinter takes U P the matter this morninj, and appears to think that it 'slakes out a case for the Established Church, because some men believe in Mesmerism, in the Unknown Tongues, and in the ridiculous stories of Popish saints. But before such an argument can be available in defence of the Church, it must b e proved that t he State pays the pro fessors of Mesmerism, of the CPl:flown Tongues, and of the propagator s of a belief in Popish miracles. The State PaYs,the Church very largely; and not only pays it, but Ittodifiies many of our institutions, greatly to the damage of several classes of the people, for its advantage and now it has been made suddenly manifested to the public by an extraordinary series of events, t hough philosophers and inquirers have known it long l ige, that the Church is the n ursing-mother of ignorance %lid fanaticism. What should we think of our Army, of the services of which the nation is proud, or our Navy, which is ever to be held in honour, if, on bringing either to the proof, it was found that the national defence, the professed object for which they are instituted, was in fact t°tally unprovided for both by sea and land ; and that if Re wished to have our shores protected from a foreign in tadn, we must immediately take measures to form other fle ets ond other armies. Now this is the case with the Church. It professes to instruct the people ; it is sai d to b e valuable as a preventive of fanaticism and tise are now ratid, aware that where there is most Church, t here ignorance 's most d ense, and f a naticism most da rk, g l oomy, and dange.rous. The Scotsman, a journal distin guished by its enlightened views, expresses in the following extract a far sounder o pinion than that of the Times : We suspect there are fe.v of the rural parishes of England, in which members capable of being misled by such delusions may not be found. l'ut England has a mighty " moral police," :Is Dr. Chalmers calls it, for the removal of ignorance and the prevention of,CriMe—a Church costing t our o r fi ve m illi o ns per annum. She has (exclusive of Dissenters) fifteen 17 usaild clergymen paid by the State far a population of fourteen mil. ,) o n 6, or one clergyman for every nine hundred souls, which is 'store th an even our cburch.extenacrs demand. Could a more complete„ in'oof be given of the utter uselessness of an Esta wishment, as a means of diffusing among the people just ideas of their own condition, or the humblest elements of teligious And Moral instruction ? I f half the money waste 'feedingon the Church in drones arid supporting peagantry had been bestowed on schools, ' t Possible that disgraceful scenes like this could lOve , o , u;c . urred tloW does it happen that the Clergy have lived in the midst nt . Its dense 14rorance, and made no effort to dispel it ? Did they not see it 2 Or tt they saw it, were they content to leave it un molested in all d, its rantaken k. tres s The truth should be told th e Clergy of Englan to the masss, have long been in th e enemies of the know. ;ge. They 'd rea d education, because the growth of intelli. f e nce would destroy the abuses on which they fatten, while -it would be fatal to their power, by nourishing independence of thought, grid increasing di sse nt. Their hostility t o Bible and Missionary Socie. ;2" , to Lanca'sterian schools, and to the London University, is notthey yet ii°t‘"tten. They have not sim p l y neglected popular education : ,vositively obstructed it. The ignorance of which we witness the nit'si.t their work; for if the Churc h had not existed, there is no rea son to doubt that the spontaneous activity of the public mind, which has tr eated t,m thousand schools for a p o p ulation of two millions in the S tat e of New York, would have broug ht education to the door of every h v e asatit in th,,t more wealthy and far mor e densely peopled England. There is, however, a higher inquiry wh ich g rows out of t his subj ec t. Ti:e Times r eproaches the Catholics with a bel ief in the foolish stories of the Saints, but similar foolish stories are taught by the Church of England. It ridi cu l es t he belief in Mesmer ism, but - is pro b - . a hly a devout admirer of the doctrines of Apes 'lied succession as taught at Oxford, according to w hich ev e must believe that the Clergy of the Church o f Engl an d have received, by the unbroken sue- Cession of laying on of hand s, through all the long list of wicked Popes, and war like Bishops, and cun ning Priests of the middle age s, the p ower to iheal and to save ; and that they alone are the ministers of the true Church of Christ. Those w ho believe this have not the s mallest right to ridicule the belief in the Unknown Tongues, much less the visible Phenomena of Me,:rnerism. We hope that this opportunity will not be thrown a way for instituting an inquiry into the general eff ec t on t h e p, , blic mind , partic ularl y as causing a predisposition to eredulit,v, of the weekly doctrines of the St ate paid Clergy. Wl),' should ignorant men be Condemned, and be treated as 6. -iminals for believing in the P o ssibility of a re p e titi o n of such mar vels as the Clergy weekly insist it is necessary for all :.ken to believe ? till th e experiment wai made, could t he Clergy expect that "` .4 he the ignorant peasantry should be convinced that Thom, or COURTENAY was not endowed with that power to work miracles which he claimed, and which is similar to that in the former existence of which they gain immense opulence by teaching ? It seems to us that their doctrines predispose the mind to believe in such impos tures as THOM ; and where men have, from want of time and opportunity, no means of acquiring any other knowledge but that which they imbibe in the parish Church, where the instruction of the paid priesthood is wholly un corrected by other information, it may be expected that they should be prone to a belief in impossible things. The Irish Poor-law Bill went through Committee in the House of Lords last night, and was ordered to be reported on Tuesday next. It will be seen by our report of the proceedings in another column that several amendments, though none of any.material importance, were agreed to by the House. Lord ELLENBOROUGH succeeded in getting a clause introduced relative to emigration, which appears to us to be of very doubtful utility. In order to en courage emigration, we have the following roundabout and apparently resultless process. The Guardians of any electotal district are empowered to apply to the Com missioners, and the Commissioners, if they think fit, are em powered to convene a meeting of the rate-pa) - ers of the said district, who arc in their turn empowered to assess them selves to an emigration rate, which rate the Commissioners are empowered to confirm or annul as they may thi,lk proper. The effect of this se enactment will, in all probability, be to check instead of stimulating emigration, by superseding the individual exertion which is at present made to promote that object, without substituting any thing of a public nature half so effectual in -its stead. The poor man, who is desirous of transferring his labour to a country where it may procure him the necessaries of life, will be told, when he applies to his friends for assistance, that he cannot expect them to defray his expenses, now that the law has appointed the means of raising a public fund for the purpose ; and the ratepayers will think that they have quite enough to do in providing for the maintenance of the poor at home, without taxing themselves to send them abroad, and thus holding out, as it were, a double premium to poverty. It is not a little humiliating to England, so superior in some respects to continental States, that she stands al most at the bottom of the scale as regards the general education of the people. Holland and Prussia are in finitely superior in that respect ; France is superior, and making every year rapid progress in rivalling these two countries—nay, even more has been done for national edu cation in Ireland, divided by the antipathies and preju dices of two contending religious sects, than has been done in Protestant England. It is true that the Bishop of EXETER and the high Church party have done everything in their power to arrest its progress, but, happily, with little effect. According to the last report of the Com missioners, 1,300 schools are fully established in Ireland, in which instruction is given to about 170,000 children, more than two-thirds of whom are in the provinces of Leinster and Ulster, where Protestants are most nume rous. This is the most important and most grati fying feature in the experiment, and holds out the strongest encouragement to apply a similar system to England, where fewer obstacles to the amalgamation of all classes exist. We assert it with sor row, and with the fullest conviction of the truth, that to the Established Church alone is to be attributed this hu miliating circumstance in our social condition. The Bishops not onlyhave refrained from introducing measures for the general education of the people, but they have inva riably thrown obstacles in the way of any rational plan, by which the children of the two great parties in the country, Churchmen and Protestant Dissenters, can be educated at the same school. Though the Dissenters form such a vast proportion of the population, no concessions are to be made to them. The musters must belong to the Established Church—the Established Clergy must be the superinten dents—every part of the system, in fact, must be tinged with with some of the peculiarities of the Church, else the Bishops, and their steady supporters, the high Tories, rise in a body against the plan. This has been the practice hitherto, and if we are to judge of the hint thrown out by the Bishop of LONDON—the or gan of the Bishops—they will pursue the same course when Lord BROUGHAM'S Bill is discussed. We do not despair, however, of the cause. The sensation created throughout the country by the late proof of the deplorable ignorance of the Kentish peasantry will not be without its effect, even on the heads of the Church. We have, besides, some half dozen Liberal Bishops—a new feature in the mo dern history of the Church—and looking at the noble stand which the Bishop of NORWICH made against the bigotry of the men opposed to the system in Ireland, we may rest assured he will not be backward in asserting the same principles and advocating the same liberal system for the people of this country. It will not fail for want of an ad vocate either in him or Lord BROUGHAM. The Govern ment, too, have a vital interest in the cause ; and if the measure be rejected on account of the vain scruples of Churchmen, or by their refusing to make any concessions to the Dissenters, the public can only come to the conclu sio❑ that they are still determined to leave the people in ignorance. W e c opy from the second edition of a Morning Contem porary the following important intelligence from South America• We must await the arrival of a full account or the affair before attempting to offer a word of commera upon it : "Falmouth, June 7, " The bark Annabella, Captain Watt, has this afternoon arrived off the port from Buenos Ayres, having left thence on the 30th of March. At that time the port was under a state of blockade, and had been for two days previous declared to be so by the French Admiral. The ori. ginating cause of this step is alleged to be from the preponderance of favour in point of commerce manifested by the Buenos A yrean Govern ment towards the British. All vessels were allowed until the 10th of March to depart. " Previous to the Annabella's departure from Buenos Ayres advices had been received from Chili, stating that the British naval force had placed Valparaiso under blockade, arising from a captain of a merchant vessel being shot, and also from her Britannic Majesty's Consul, on his representation of the affair to the Government, being treated with de. cided indignity. tier Majesty's packet Spey, nearly due, with the next mails will doubtless bring more particulars." Madrid papers to the Ist inst. inclusive have been received this morning. The Madrid Gazette of the 31st ult. announces the dispersion of the Carlist Chief SA TURNING'S band in Galicia, the Commander himself having been made prisoner. Sergeant GARCIA, who played so distinguished a part at La Granja, in causing the REGENT to proclaim the Constitution, has been seized and imprisoned at Zamora, on a charge of treason. The diligence had been robbed by the Carlist Chief PALLILOS, between Valencia and Madrid. Four of the passengers were made prisoners, and it was reported that the ex-Minister LorEz was one of them. If so, he stands but a poor chance of escaping with life. On the evening of the 29th ult., Don CARLOS is re ported to have left Estella, after ordering the arrest of the Bishop of LEON and M. BARRICARTI, Auditor-General of the War Department. Tr.() hours after his arrest BAR RICAP.TI was shot by order of the Pretender. On the 31st Dor, CARLOS, after signing the sentence of death, passed on. ZaltraTEGoz and EEto arrived at Tolosa, where he was joined by General MAitoTo, who had es caped from his confinement at Bordeaux. We have no other intelligence of any interest from Spain. The question of M. MENDIZABAL'S prosecution for pub lishing secret documents connected with his "office was under dismission in the Cortes on the 31st. The Funds remained stationary. be d The Paris Papers of Thursday are filled with the deu. in the Chamber of Deputies on the African Credit question, We yesterday gave a summary of the able speech of M. DovEnotEa against the African colonization scheme, and noticed towards the conclusion of our article that M. BRESSON, Civil Intendant of Algiers, had ascended the Tribune to reply to it. M. BRESSON'S s peech differed in no thing from M. DUVERGIER'S, except that the orator, by a process of reasoning incomprehensible to our poor under standing, drew opposite conclusions from the same array of f ac ts. lie admitted the inextinguishable hatred borne by the natives to their French conquerors he acknowledged that the Treaty of Tafna was not likel'y to he followed by a lasting peace ; he even urged that such was the uto genialness of the climate that one-fourth of the French troop , were constantly in the hospital he did not contra dict a syllabia that had been uttered about the sterility of the oil, and the w,ant of a necessary supply of wood and wa ter ; and hence inferred. that the army ought to be increased, and the scheme of pailit4ry colonization recom mended by General 131.:QE4PD inaceediate'w entered upon. This view of the qutstiop was pd.t rehshe4 b y t h e president of the Council, u. , 1:0 deemed it the Chamber the conclusions of the right to piae* beforP Government upon tuz a.:4btect. The following extract from his speech on Thursday, tieJ4:yeyo, is ipttvesting.

DuvER GIFT.. After a few introductory remarks, the President of the Council argues the question thus : " He (the Minister) was far from participating in the sombre predie. tious of the Hon. Member, nor could he bring himself to believe that the treaty of the Tafea would be of brief duration. He was also of opinion that the effective military force of 50,000 men would not be exceeded. Perseverance he thought would reward France for the enormous sacri fices already made by her. In forming a judgment of the course of po licy adopted by the Government towards Africa, it was necessary to en ter into the nature of the question before the Chamber. The French had been originally led into Africa, not by the desire of conquest, but by the necessity of resenting an insult. The satisfaction due to the honour of France had been transformed into a conquest, and that conquest was now to be transformed into a productive establishment. In such a case it was impossible to s;:y beforehand thus far will we advance and no further;' for due regard must be paid to the force of circurn_ stances. He denied the assertion that the Arabs were animated by a spirit of inextinguishable hatred towards the French ; and as a proof of he contrary he observed that two days after the taking of Constantine, order was re-established, the shops were re-opened, and at the present day the tril:es were on the most friendly footing with the French soldiery, confident that the difficulties which had hitherto retarded the solution of the African question, would be removed by next session ; but in the mean time he thought it would be the height of imprudence to make the slightest diminution in the effective military force of the establishment in Africa. Ministers had wished to take the opinion of the Governor- General on a variety of systems which had been proposed, and he had accordingly been consulted. For his own part he firmly believed in the possibility of a union between the French and the natives. He was convinced that colonists could be induced to settle in the French posses. sions in Africa, and he relied upon the support of the Chamber to en sure a favourable solution of every difficulty. That support, he w:s convinced would not be withheld at a moment when the prospe. - As of the establishment in Africa were s, advantageous, and so likely to be still further improved.— (Hear.) MM. DESJOBERT and PISCATORY violently attacked the policy of the Government. The former drew a melancholy pie' are of the state of the French army in Africa. He implored the Ministry to take measures for the timely abandonment of Algiers, the soil of which, as long as re tained, would be watered with French blood. The debate was not closed when the mails left Paris for London. We copy front the Toulon:1(1;s of the 3d inst., the follow ing significant article on the subject of the, at present, very serious m isunderstanding between France and the BET Of TUNIS :-- " Notwithstanding the repeated proofs of friendship, which France has given the Hey of that regency, by saving him from the squadron sent by the Sultan to supersede him in his post, he has yielded to the suggestions of emissaries of the Porte, and fallen into the snare which they had laid for him. Thus, after forwarding 10,000,000 francs to the Sultan, the young Hey is still waiting the arrival of the Turkish Ambassador who is to invest him with the possession of the Beylic, and offer him, in the name of his master, the caftan of honour. No sooner shall the Ambassador have received the additional millions which the Bey holds in store for him, than the Ottoman squadron will, in all pro bability, come and depose him, for the Grand Seignor has not forgiven him the death of his favourite. " In this juncture, the young Bey of Tunis evinces wuch illwill to wards the French whom he suspects of impeding his friendly relations with the Porte, and it will be necessary to use violence towards him in order to rescue him from the fate which would otherwise befall him. France cannot allow the Beylie of Tunis to be committed to the go vernment of a creature of the Porte, as her tenure of Algiers might be compromised thereby. The mission of the ship Jena is consequently intended to defeat intrigues calculated to deceive the Bey of Tunis, and to pi event the landing of troops from the Turkish fleet." The King of the FRENCH has fixed to-tnorrow for re viewing, the National Guards of Paris. This is dwelt upon in some of the Journals as a proof of the silence of the police respecting the discovery of any fresh plot cr con spiracy. We have received by an extraordinary channel, accounts from Lis bon, dated 30th of May, which state that the Miguelite chief Reinichida had gained a signal advantage over the troops sent against him by the Government. The syirptoms of insurrection were becoming more and more alarming in the Algarves. It was reported at Lisbon that Don Miguel had landed on the south coast of Portugal ; but this report is at present quite improbable. It seems that Lard Howard de Walden had quitted Lisbon without having been able to conclude with the Portuguese Government, the treaty for the abolition of the negro slave trade.—Le Gazette de France.

On Saturday, June 2, arrived from off the Owens, and came into harbour, the Messenger, steam.transport ; also came into harbour the Parmelia transport, and Fanny tender. On Sunday, June 3, arrived from Jersey, the S,.aflower cutter, and her tender, Cracker. On Monday, June 4, arrived from off the Owens, the Messenger, steam-transport, with the lighters and Pincher schooner in tow. On Wednesday, June 6, arrived the Racer, 18, from the West Indies. On Thursday, June 7, the Parnielia transport went out of harbour, and sailed to the westward. On Friday, June 6, came into harbour to be paid off, the Racer, 18, and sailed the Messenger steam-transport, with a detachment of the 29th for Plymouth. The Pincher was towed in late on Monday night, and too much praise cannot be given to the offices, and men, by whose exertions mainly, this unfortunate vessel has been raised from a depth of •16 fathoms. An inquest was summoned by Mr. Greetham, the Admiralty Solicitor, on finding that there were still on board ten bodies; and after the jury (which consisted entirely of the officers and petty officers of the Bri. tannia), had proceeded on board and viewed the miserable spectacle, the bo:lies were placed in shells, and on the afternoon of Tuesday were deposited in one common grave in the burial.ground at Haslar. Sub. joined I give you an account of the bodies as they were passed up on deck Ist Body—a stout person, in clerk's uniform ; '2d—a black seaman; 3d—a white ditto; 4th—ditto, ditto ; sth—a white man, supposed to be a marine, from his having on soldier's boots ; 6th—a white man, sup posed to be a steward or servant, from his having a bunch of keys about him, and wearing a dress different from seamen generally ; 7th—a sea. man ; Sth—a boy, app arentl y ver y y oun g; 9th—a stout p erson, in an officer's uniform jacke t, double breasted, rolling collar, buttons w ithout i nterme diate spaces, height about fire feet ten incise s, o r upwards; 10th —a seaman, very tall, be in g above six feet. The first nine bodies were found on the low e r deck, abr e a st the hatch ways, apparently as i f a rush had been made to those places ; the 10th body was found in the gun-room, and was the only one abaft. The glasses were in the rack, the cups hanging up as usual, and a decanter of wine was on the sideboard. In short, most of the chests, books, &c. have been recovered, and a considerable portion of her stores. On Thursday another body was found, it being that of a seaman, amongst the bags. The convicts are still employed in clearing her out, and no doubt exists but that she will be broken up : so much for poor Pincher. On Wednesday, C. 0. Wood, of the Bellerophon, Charles Nol loth, late of Dublin, and Cuthbert Collingwood Denny, late of the Snake, passed their examinations in seamanship to serve as Lieutenants in her Majesty's na v y , and on Friday, per special order, Mr. Marcus - !r, late of the Dublin, passed his examination. ~rthe COMMON PLEAS,-(THIS DAY.) PENNY V. SLADE. This was an action brought against the Mayor of Poole and other Magistrates to recover damages for an illegal seizure for poor-rates, on the ground that the appointment of the overseers was fraudulent and illegal, and co nsequently the rate was illegal. The case was tried at Dorchester, before Lord Denman, and a verdict was found for the defendants. Last term a rule nisi was gran t ed for a new trial, and on Thursday last the Court was a long time occupied in showing cause against the rule. This day Mr. Crowder replied, and the argument is likely to occupy the whole day. There are two other ac tions arising out of the same matter. LLOYD'S SHIPPING.-('PHIS DAY DEAL, JUNE B.—Wind, N.N.

WOObSTOCK. The Committee met this morning at eleven o'clock. Mr. At . sTIN said the first case he should proceed with was the vote of Richard Partridge, who was objected to on the ground of having lost his qualification after the registration. Thomas Curtis examined by Mr. AUSTIN —1 know Richard Partridge, pastrycook, who went into my house in March, 1636. He left in January this year, and gave me the key. He then went to a house be longing to Mr. Bennett, the postmaster, where he resided at the election and up to the present time.—Vote struck off. Wm. Butler was objected to on the same ground. _ _ Peter Leach examined by Mr. COCKBURN—WiIIiam Butler occuplea premises in Kidlington until last Lady_day ; he then removed to a house belonging to Thomas Panton. I took the garden and orchard formerly occupied by Butler about three weeks after he left ; I am to pay 51. for it until Michaelmas ; the rent of the house and garden was 191. a year. Mr. RoGEas submitted them was no proof that the voter had quitted his occupation. To give satisfactory proof the landlord ought to have been called. Committee rttained the vote. Edward Fathers was next objected to. Richard Young examined by Mr. AUSTlN—Fathers occupied pre mises in Kidlington before Easter, and had done so for several years. The week before Easter the house was pulled down. Fathers took a house of my mother at that time and went into it, removing his milt and all his goods there. He lives there now. A new house is being built in the place of the old one, for the owner, Mr. Hutt, to live in. Fathers told me so. He is a mason. Cross_examined by Mr. THESSIG ER—I am a gentleman.—(Laughter.) I voted for Lord John Churchill. Mr. COCKBURN—That is voting like a gentleman.—(Loud laughter.) By Mr. GODSON—He always paid his rent yearly at Michaelmas. BY another Member—l have not interfered wiih the garden or out. houses since lie left. I expect the same rent from him at Michaelmas as I received before, when he occupied the house. Mr. THESSIGER then proceeded to address the Committee in support of the vote. THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY). COVENT G AUDEN. The supplies continue to improve as fast as the weather will allow them, which is but slowly.

BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE COLONIAL MARKETS DURING THE WEEK. A very good business done as our daily reports have shewn. 3,400 bids. B.P. Sugar sold, at fully the prices of the week previous.

Rice, 6d. and Is. per cwt. higher. Rum, Id. per gallon higher. Indigo and Cotton, without va riation. Spices generally firm. The imports fair; the exports light ; the deliveries good. LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET. With Oats we were moderately supplied during the period between this day's market and our last, but the arrivals of other sorts of grain, and likewise Oatmeal and Flour, were very trifling. Holders of free Wheat exhibited more firmness this morning, and although only a very poor demand was experienced, our last quoted rates were steadily maintained. Flour also on a moderate retail enquiry sus. stained late prices. Malt and Barley were the turn lower. Oats were extremely difficult to part with, at barely our quotations of Tuesday. Oatmeal, however, remained firm. Malt and Pease were slightly de pressed in value, and met a flat sale. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, JUNK 8. We have no change to report in prices since yesterday ; rather more business was transacted, 4,000 bags having found purchasers. The market closed very firmly, and fine qualities of Cotton are now be coming scarce. MONEY AND COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY (THIS DAY), TWELVE O'CLOCK. A letter has been posted at the North and South American Coffee. house, from Buenos Ayres, dated the 29th of March, conflrmng the previous information of the blockade of the port by the French squadron ; also stating that the evils of the blockade will chiefly fall on the fo. reigners, should not a representation to the French Admiral be well received. We have received Buenos Ayres papers to the 25th of March. The news from Monte Video is of the 19th of March, but in fact this last news amounts to little or nothing. It would appear that the chief of the rebellion, Rivera, was on the 14th instant, at the Paso del Sauce del Queguay ; and it is said his army was daily diminishing by deser. tion. Various skirthishes are spoken of. The President of the Re public, Don Manual Oribe, continued at Monte Video ; the Na. tional army being now commanded by his brother, who had addressed to it various proclamations on the state of affairs. It is reported that the belligerents are at present unable to re-commence active opera tions, from the sufferings of their cavalry by drought.

DEATH OF THE CHIEF BARON.--We regret to announce the death of Chief Baron Joy, which took place at his country residence, Woodstown, c o unty of Dublin , at two o'clock y esterday. His Lordship was called to the Bar in 1788, and was raised to the chief seat on the Exchequer Bench in IB3l.—Dublin Evening Post of Thursday. It was generally rumoured this day that Lord Guillamore, who, as Chief Baron O'Grady, so long presided in the Court of Exchequer, died yesterday, at his scat, Rockbarton, county of Lime rick.
